its a success story, and an artifact of a terrible mod decision. mods in the other one unilaterally decided to move 196 to lemmy.world, but the community decided the mods can go fuck themselves… so when the original 196 was locked, this new one with new mods was created.
at some point the og mods realized they fucked up and unlocked it. i say, the 196 is dead. long live the onehundredninetysix
Have to be real here, while casually browsing from my instance, I usually don’t know if a post I am seeing is from the original or the improvement 🤔
I am an equal opportunity upvoter in that regard.
I follow both. I honestly hadn’t noticed it’s the same mods on the original 196 though, so if I post henceforth I will post here or on !19684@lemmy.blahaj.zone
I never wanted to raise the point to avoid stirring up drama, but based on some exchanges I had in the past with the original 196 mods, I wasn’t terribly surprised they ended up being … the way they are
Isn’t there three? Or did .world get abandoned after the shitstorm that insured following the attempted migration?
What’s supposed to be the third one next to this and .world?
The original community was !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone, but the mods went on a “we own this community, not the users” power trip. They tried to forcibly migrate the community to !196@lemmy.world instead, to consolidate power with the admins over there. The users revolted. The mods quickly reversed course, but the damage was already done and the community’s trust was already broken. !Onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone was created as a protest against the 196 mods, and has been thriving ever since.
Which makes 2 communities since the original one is dead
This is the newer !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone which isn’t run by the same people as the original !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone. This one was created when the mods of that community tried to migrate to !196@lemmy.world which a lot of people weren’t on board with.
Yes but the original !196@blahaj.zone is dead so I didn’t count it
i lik dis one bettr cuz here the cuties rule <3 and not the… apparently less cute peeps ;(
